Not PHP. Magento has objectively terrible design. Make your methods protected. __call() will be invoked if they're protected or private. If your system isn't flexible enough to allow that, and doesn't have some sort of event hook system, you need to reassess why you're using it in the first place. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-01-26 08:19:00] info at ericdorr dot de Since 2009 and still no implementation. Where I have to apply as Developer to fix that ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-12 21:48:43] sebastien dot roux dot dev at gmail dot com This problem can be solved in several ways when we can implements a design pattern on existing code, but when we works on products like magento when can't do anything, overiding classes ans methods is very strict and limited. The only way is to implement a new magic method like '__call' but called only if method exists. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-28 10:55:04] logy at logy dot com dot br Description: ------------ Not exactly a bug but i didn't find another good place to post it. I'd like to see a implemented magic method or something like that, with funcionality of the __call method but that hooks before any method that really EXISTS in the class. Something like that would be very util on implementations such as security and any other control over a multiple class design. I think PHP a wonderful language, but for the first time, I found a problem in the language that won't fit my design needs, so, I expect my solicitation to be valid.
